Re: LC Server - MySQL - update about 2000 rows/records of a table

Re: LC Server - MySQL - update about 2000 rows/records of a table

The shell function can do this. I don't know if there could be a limit to the length of the shell command though. Working example: on mouseUp put shortfilepath("C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.6\bin\mysql.exe") into myFilePath -- the following line contains 2 insert commands

On mysql.. can't you prebuild your multi-command transaction in a variable (with a beginning and ending to the transaction) and then use revexecutesql with a single call for the one big transaction? On Fri, Dec 29, 2017 at 5:59 PM, Dr. Hawkins via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com>

LC Server - MySQL - update about 2000 rows/records of a table
